The generator can produce pulses with an arbitrary frequency modulation, instantaneous frequency up to 140 MHz, and widths ranging from microseconds to milliseconds. The pulses can be formed into arbitrary sequences with the minimum spacing of 150 ns. We experimentally verify performance of the generator for pulses with the linear frequency modulation (LFM), obtaining an excellent performance in terms of the compression ratio and side-lobes level. We also demonstrate the ability of our generator to produce pulses with a nonlinear frequency modulation (NLFM). Experimental analysis of an exemplary NLFM pulse produced by the generator confirms that NLFM allows to reduce the side-lobes level without deteriorating the compression ratio.","PeriodicalId":315003,"journal":{"name":"2006 International Conference on Microwaves, Radar & Wireless Communications","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126476734","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two types of such instruments are considered: Doppler, millimeter-wave meteorological radars and an airborne SAR system, which have been developed at the Institute of Radio Astronomy of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine. The meteorological radars have been designed for long-term, unattainable operation at remote locates. The SAR system benefits essentially from a novel algorithm, which enables the estimation of the antenna beam orientation angles directly from the radar returns. The SAR with this technique introduced can be operated from small aircrafts without using of a complicated navigation system. The set-up of these instruments, the technical solutions, and the signal processing techniques introduced are discussed. The results obtained during measurement campaigns are presented as well.","PeriodicalId":315003,"journal":{"name":"2006 International Conference on Microwaves, Radar & Wireless Communications","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125567263","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However simulation process for a complicated circuit may take significantly long time, which grows with increasing of model accuracy. Optimization process may call for simulation (depending on count of varying parameters, and circuit behavior) tens, hundreds or even thousand times. The two design requirements: create project in a reasonable time with a reasonable accuracy, conflict one with each other. In practice the design engineer insist on using the fastest simulation model possible. The trap associated with this approach is discussed in presented paper.

This dilemma is a result of previous and still current approaches to earthquake prediction which are squarely based on the seismic measurement of crustal movements, observable only after a tectonic stress-change discharge (earthquake) has occurred. The prediction models derived from past histories of measurements were mainly carried out during the past 40-50 years, although initiated soon after the San Francisco earthquake of 1906. During the past decade it was proved and shown that it is not possible to derive reliable models for earthquake predictions from crustal movement measurements alone - as valuable and as indispensable those indeed are - and that an entirely new approach must be taken and rigorously pursued over many years and decades to come, and most likely throughout this twenty-first century. Of considerable importance will be the full integration of multi-band (P-K Band) repeat-pass differential interferometric Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar (POL-SAR) space borne and high-altitude platform monitoring operations which will be considered here in conjunction with \"seismo-electromagnetic \" ground measurements. It will be shown that Taiwan is ideally suited for studying earthquake related electromagnetic precursor studies in that the island is separated from other continental regions, and there exist the resources, the dedication and will power for advancing our knowledge most rapidly. Both land-based and sub-oceanic measurement networks already exist, which need to be upgraded and perfected. With the aid of experienced and knowledgeable experts, this will be done soon.","PeriodicalId":315003,"journal":{"name":"2006 International Conference on Microwaves, Radar & Wireless Communications","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2006-05-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129987156","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
